January 9th, 2007 #8Holy shit, my southern and Latin Brother! MUCHO LOCO!!!! HAHAHAHA
Beautiful work.... you already know I'm already your fan, heh?
Keep it up!
January 9th, 2007 #9Lovely work - I particularly like the evocation of mood and atmosphere. The work encourages you to put things together in your own mind, yet with a strong direction provided by the images. Things have not been generalised because of incompetence but because you seem to have a very clear idea of what mood you want to convey through subtle use of mystery. I look forward to more!

Arnold's budget dealing: a public health issue?
Earlier this year, when Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger hunkered down with legislators in budget negotiations, the result was a delay of regulations to crack down on cancer-causing diesel pollution from construction and farm equipment. It was a provision intensely sought by business interests, but one with little effect on budgetary or fiscal matters.
Now, once again, environmentalists are sounding the alarm that eco-issues are on the table in the budgetary arm wrestling that has paralyzed Sacramento in recent weeks.
Eight major advocacy groups wrote Schwarzenegger and legislative leaders on July 16 asking that they resist efforts to insert into the budget a provision that could enable the building of new power plants in the Los Angeles Basin.
The South Coast Air Quality Management District, a regional agency, is pushing the provision, incorporated in a stalled Senate bill, SB 696. The air district has been prevented by a recent court ruling from giving out emissions credits for power plants until it fully analyzes the environmental impact. Republican and some Democratic legislators, along with the Chamber of Commerce and other business groups, want any new budget deal to overturn the court decision.
South Coast officials said they view new power plants as necessary to serve a growing population and prevent blackouts. But as a result of lawsuits brought by the Natural Resources Defense Council and other environmental groups, the agency has delayed the permits for power plants, as well as for hundreds of other businesses, until the credits issue is resolved.
According to the July 16 letter from the Sierra Club, the American Lung Assn. and other groups, overturning the court decision in the budget deal would "add 10 tons per day of dirty particulate pollution to the Los Angeles Air Basin. ... Our organizations have argued strenuously against 11th-hour budget proposals to weaken environmental and public health laws that have nothing to do with the state budget."
Two other issues are also reportedly on the table. Bill Magavern, director of the California branch of the Sierra Club, said Schwarzenegger wants to insert a provision in the budget to overturn the State Lands Commission's denial of a plan to expand offshore oil drilling off Santa Barbara.
And, Magavern said, the governor is also seeking to use the budget deal as a vehicle for his earlier proposal to abolish a key scientific review agency, the Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment, which evaluates the impacts of chemical contaminants.
Aaron McLear, the governor's press secretary, said: "We don't comment on budget negotiations. Once there is a final agreement, we will share that with the press."

Nicolas Charlet Biographical Information
He was the son of a dragoon in the Republican army, whose death in the ranks left the widow and orphan in very poor circumstances. Madame Charlet, however, a woman of determined spirit and an extreme Napoleonist, managed to give her boy a moderate education at the Lyce Napoleon, and was repaid by his lifelong affection.
His first employment was in a Parisian maine, where he had to register recruits: he served in the National Guard in 1814, fought bravely at the Barrére de Clichy, and, being thus unacceptable to the Bourbon party, was dismissed from the maine in 1816. He then, having from a very early age had a propensity for drawing, entered the atelier of the distinguished painter Baron Gros, and soon began issuing the first of those lithographed designs which eventually brought him renown.
His "Grenadier de Waterloo", 1817, with the motto "La Garde meurt et ne se rend pas" (a famous phrase frequently attributed to Cambronne, but which he never uttered, and which cannot, perhaps, be traced farther than to this lithograph by Charlet), was particularly popular. It was only towards 1822, however, that he began to be successful in a professional sense. Lithographs (about 2000 altogether), water-colours, sepia-drawings, numerous oil sketches, and a few etchings followed one another rapidly; there were also three exhibiled oil pictures, the first of which was especially admired "Episode in the Campaign of Russia" (1836), the "Passage of the Rhine by Moreau" (1837), "Wounded Soldiers Halting in a Ravine" (1843).
Besides the military subjects in which he peculiarly delighted, and which found an energetic response in the popular heart, and kept alive a feeling of regret for the recent past of the French nation and discontent with the present,a feeling which increased upon the artist himself towards the close of his career, Charlet designed many subjects of town life and peasant life, the ways of children, etc., with much wit and whim in the descriptive mottoes. One of the most famous sets is the "Vie civile, politique, et militaire du Caporal Valentin", 50 lithographs, dating from 1838 to 1842. In 1838 his health began to fail owing to an affection of the chest.
Charlet was an uncommonly tall man, with an expressive face, bantering and good natured; his character corresponded, full of boyish fun and high spirits, with manly independence, and a vein of religious feeling, and he was a hearty favourite among his intimates, one of whom was the painter GĂ©ricault. Charlet married in 1824, and two sons survived him.
A life of Charlet was published in 1856 by a military friend, De la Combe.

When the news broke last week that JetBlue and Aer Lingus would be forming a "strategic partnership," the question on the minds of many was whether the relationship, scheduled to take effect on April 3, would include reciprocal frequent flyer program participation. In other words, would members of JetBlue's TrueBlue program be able to earn points when flying on Aer Lingus; and would members of Aer Lingus's Gold Circle Club be able to earn points when flying on JetBlue.
More often than not, frequent flyer program links are put in place to provide the glue that holds such tie-ups together, giving consumers a reason to view two airlines' separate services as an integrated whole. So there was reason to hope we'd see loyalty program integration in this case. However, with frequent flyer partnerships already in place with American, British Airways, Cathay Pacific, and Qantas, there's no pressing need for Aer Lingus to add JetBlue to their partner roster.
But JetBlue would certainly benefit from the addition of Aer Lingus to the TrueBlue program. As it stands, TrueBlue members can only earn points for JetBlue flights, and for charges to the American Express TrueBlue credit card. The ability to earn points for Aer Lingus flights, and, even more importantly, the ability to redeem points for award flights on Aer Lingus, would be a giant step forward for TrueBlue.
Alas, no such step will be taken. According to a JetBlue spokesperson, the relationship with Aer Lingus focuses exclusively on two consumer benefits: 1) delivering the lowest possible fare when travelers combine flights on the two airlines; and 2) providing seamless baggage transfer on connecting flights.
Still, wouldn't frequent flyer points help focus flyers' attention on the benefits of combining JetBlue and Aer Lingus flights? The answer is yes, but at a cost deemed unacceptable by the airlines. JetBlue and Aer Lingus are both low-cost carriers, and the investment required to integrate their programs couldn't be justified.
"Well," I pressed, "what about JetBlue's relationship with Lufthansa? Might there be a loyalty program tie-up on that front?" While Lufthansa's 19% stake in JetBlue took effect on January 22, the nature and details of that relationship are still being worked out, and the answer to the mileage program question remains "TBD," according to JetBlue.
So for the foreseeable future, TrueBlue members will be limited to earning and redeeming points for flights on a single airline: JetBlue.

After being around him for going on four years, Smith can just look at coach Thad Matta.
"You can tell when coach Matta is kind of falling back a little bit and
is taking it easy," Smith said with a grin. "And then you can tell when
basketball season is coming around. Coach has a lot of juice, a lot of
energy, he's ready to get things underway."
This year, for a change, Matta doesn't have to introduce a bunch of newcomers to college-level hoops.
Having lost eight players early to the NBA draft in his nine seasons
with the Buckeyes, the Ohio State coach is accustomed to acquainting
first-year players to the college game while plugging holes left by
premature departures.
Deshaun Thomas, the Big Ten's leading scorer, surrendered his senior
season last spring to be drafted in the second round by the San Antonio
But Matta has a veteran crew back that includes two seniors and seven
juniors from a 29-win squad that came within a whisper of its second
straight trip to the Final Four.
"We have a chance to have a really, really good basketball team," said
Matta, who is 250-73 with the Buckeyes and 352-104 in his 13 years as a
head coach, also at Butler and Xavier. "I've loved the energy, the
cohesiveness. It's early. I'd say this: I'm very excited about the
Here's five things to watch with the 2013-14 Buckeyes:
GO-GO GUARDS: The Buckeyes return four starters, led by senior guards
Aaron Craft and Smith, who have won 94 games in their career already.
Craft, of course, is a pesty defensive guard who opposing teams and fans
despise for his physical play but is adored by Matta, Ohio State's fans
and his teammates. A pre-med major and academic whiz, he has been known
to totally disrupt offenses with his quick hands and uncanny intuition.
He completely changed his inconsistent jump shot in the offseason.
"It just didn't feel as smooth as it should have been," he said. "Right now we're at a good position. We put in a lot of work."
Smith also is a terrific defender, but is as likely to score four points
in a game as he is 24. He's got to be more dependable night after
Q FACTOR: Thomas averaged 19.8 points a game and led the Big Ten in scoring. He also was not afraid to take a big shot.
LaQuinton Ross, a 6-foot-8 scorer who came alive in Ohio State's NCAA
run to the regional championships last year, will be counted on to make
up for a chunk of that lost offense.
"I don't feel like it's a lot on me right now," said Ross, a junior who
average 8.2 points a game last season. "We've got almost the whole team
coming back. I think everybody is going to contribute this year. But I
take it upon myself to try to make up for some of the scoring that we're
BIG ENIGMA: Amir Williams, a brawny 6-11 McDonald's All-American, has
the skills to dominate inside but was often invisible a year ago. A
starter the last 26 games, he averaged 3.5 points and 3.9 rebounds a
He claims he's bigger and stronger this year, and that he can has
figured out how to avoid foul trouble and being timid on the boards.
"Rebounding is a key for me this year that I need to focus on more," he
said. "Coach explained to me, my play is important this season so he
can't have me playing 10 to 12 minutes for the game because of foul
TAKING A STEP: Sam Thompson, a jumping-jack swingman, provides
highlight-reel dunks but, like Smith, sometimes has blended into the
background. He cannot afford to do that again this year.
Same for backup point guard Shannon Scott, a spectacular defender who
has never been much of a shooter. If either develop into scoring
threats, it'll take the burden off the others and present real problems
for a defense.
BUILT ON D: Last year's Buckeyes went 29-8, running Matta's record to 13
for 13 in terms of 20-win seasons as a head coach. They also won the
Big Ten tournament.
Defense was the difference then, as it will be now.
"We're never going to go away from our defense," Matta said. "Those are the building blocks that you have."

Trench effect
This article includes a list of references, related reading or external links, but its sources remain unclear because it lacks inline citations. (August 2014) |
The trench effect is a combination of circumstances that can rush a fire up an inclined surface. It depends on two well-understood but separate ideas: the Coandă effect from fluid dynamics and the flashover concept from fire dynamics.
The Coandă effect is the tendency of a fast stream of air to deflect to nearby surfaces. The stream's static pressure tends to decrease, which creates a pressure difference between the wall and areas far from the wall. This bends the stream towards the surface and tends to keep it attached to that surface.
Flashover is a sudden widespread fire, which occurs when most surfaces in a space are heated until they emit flammable gases hot enough to self-ignite. Prior to flashover, flammable gases may be emitted but are too cool to self-ignite.
The trench effect occurs when a fire burns beside a steeply-inclined surface. The flames lie down along the surface, demonstrating the Coandă effect. The flames heat the material farther up: these emit gases that self-ignite, demonstrating flashover theory. The flames from these areas are themselves subject to the Coandă effect and blow a jet of flame up to the end of the inclined surface. This jet continues until the fuel depletes.
The trench effect became known because of the scientific investigation of the King's Cross fire. The fire started on an escalator (containing combustible wood) between the Piccadilly line platforms and the ticket hall at King's Cross St. Pancras tube station. Many eyewitnesses indicated that early on, the fire in the escalator was of manageable size: officers from the Fire Brigade and British Transport Police indicated that the fire appeared no larger than a large cardboard box burning. Those present were surprised when it suddenly threw a sustained jet of flame into the ticket hall. This trench effect does not explain the sudden explosions that blew some survivors off their feet.
The relatively inconspicuous flames associated with the trench effect, hugging the space on and under the inclined trench of the escalator steps, meant that many travellers watched a fire growing without thinking it might be a good idea to leave the area. One survivor reports approaching the escalator and noting thick black smoke that suddenly blew up - showing that the main loss of life came from the sudden superheated explosion of gases in the flashover, rather than the precipitating flames of the 'trench effect' fire itself, which fueled the release and heating of those gases. The people in the ticket hall at the top of the escalators, while avoiding the visible flames, were unwittingly waiting in the path of the eventual sudden flashover explosion fueled by the fire.
What seems clear is that in the early stages of the fire, the flames visible to anyone not standing on the burning escalator were a small part of the full story. Most of the flames were lying down in the escalator trench; only a few visibly protruded above the balustrade. The sides of the trench further enhanced the effect by preventing heat loss by radiation to the side, insulating and concentrating the heat along the narrow trench. The lack of visible flames lulled the emergency services into a false sense of security. When the treads of the escalator flashed over, the fire grew dramatically and ignited most of the ticket hall. The HSE's Health and Safety Laboratory in Buxton lit fires in 1/10-scale and 1/3 scale models of the escalator and ticket hall to prove that the trench effect was the main cause of the King's Cross fire. The sudden flashover may be attributed to the wood gas (mainly methane) emitted from the pyrolysis of the wooden escalator itself. When the concentration of gas reaches a critical value (the lower flammability limit), the gas suddenly catches fire in the presence of a flame.
An episode of TV series Forensic Files entitled "Flashover" detailed the King's Cross fire, along with the computer modeling and other analyses which discovered the trench effect.

The district is using an 'academic return-on-investment' system to look at whether programs are worth the money.
Lakeville schools are taking a business concept from the boardroom to the classroom, hoping to evaluate which academic programs are working and which ones aren't worth it.
This summer the district started using an academic return-on-investment (A-ROI) philosophy to look at one program, with plans to do the same with others in the coming year.
Other districts, such as West St. Paul-Mendota Heights-Eagan and South St. Paul, have also used A-ROI. In fact, that's how Lakeville became familiar with the concept, said Superintendent Lisa Snyder.
Officials admit that schools aren't exactly businesses, and that measuring outcomes can mean grappling with some things that are tough to measure.
One attribute — and educational buzzword — that may be assessed is grit, or how determined a student is to do something, despite challenges. Others include students' engagement, resiliency and curiosity.
How to assess such fuzzy concepts?
There are ways to do it, including surveys, focus groups, observations and interviews, officials insist. Parents, teachers and students will all be involved.
"We feel like we need to take a 'whole child' approach," Snyder said.
In business, return on investment means how much a company is getting back for what it has paid in, financially and otherwise.
In education, it involves determining a program's goals, measuring them using data and determining whether students in the program are meeting them, said Jason Molesky, the district's program evaluation director.
A program's cost is also weighed in, he said.
The system "is exciting because it's the first time that we can really evaluate each program for what its merit is," said Roz Peterson, school board chairwoman.
A-ROI is still brand new in Lakeville, having been discussed at a recent school board work session. A formal presentation to the board is scheduled this week.
In recent years, Lakeville has experimented with many innovative programs, from Impact Academy, in which students learn at their own pace, to Link 12, an online school.
This system will "just strengthen our improvement efforts and provide another means for talking about how we're doing," Molesky said.
While Lakeville was already results-oriented, the new system "is a really good fit for Lakeville to bring us to the next level," Snyder said.
So many variables

maceutical and health insurance industries.11 Unfortunately, no national statistical system reports on the size and composition of the health services research workforce, since national workforce statistics usually capture information about these scientists in terms of their primary discipline of training or employment and fail to identify the field of scientific inquiry as "health services research."12 In other words, many scientists who work on health services research problems may do so while conducting research in other areas, such as social, biological, or health research. Furthermore, many health services researchers conduct research as part of their primary employment in nonacademic settings, such as those working in government policy and planning offices or those employed in the pharmaceutical or insurance industries. Therefore, this "part-time" involvement in health services research only further exacerbates efforts to estimate the size and composition of this workforce.
Despite the absence of a national database, a number of studies over the years have yielded important insights into the nature and composition of this group of specialists.13 For example, the field of health services research draws talent several ways. In the early years of the field's development in the 1960s and 1970s, clinicians and other health scientists simply redirected the focus of their research on the matter of improving health care delivery.14,15 Today, individuals enrolled in more traditional fields of science and engineering have the opportunity to focus their studies at the doctoral level specifically on problems related to health care services and delivery. They may do so as doctoral candidates in public health or health policy; in the social sciences, including health economics; in other health sciences such as epidemiology or biostatistics; or in health services research itself. Indeed, the NRSA program has made it possible for many individuals interested in receiving formal training in health services research at the predoctoral level to do so.16
Postdoctoral research training is another mechanism that has emerged over the past 20 years to foster the growth of a skilled health services research workforce.17,18 The AHRQ T32 NRSA program has proven to be an especially effective mechanism for attracting clinicians into a health services research career. Of the nearly 200 individuals who received postdoctoral NRSA support through AHRQ between 1986 and 1997, two-thirds had earned a doctorate in one of the clinical professions prior to NRSA training, primarily in internal medicine.19 Among those individuals holding a research doctorate and pursuing postdoctoral training, half had earned a doctoral degree in the social sciences.20
The best data available on the actual size of the health services research workforce comes from the membership roles of the professional organization, AcademyHealth. AcademyHealth draws its members from both health services research and health care policy and includes student memberships. While this database more than likely underestimates the total size of the workforce, it does provide some insights into its composition.
The total AcademyHealth membership in 2004 was 3,745, and 1,688 members (45 percent) reported having a Ph.D., Sc.D., or other doctoral-level training in science. There were another 710 (19 percent) reporting an M.D. and only 15 with a D.D.S. The primary locus of employment for doctoral degree holders who are members of AcademyHealth is the academic sector. Table 7-1 shows the distribution of these individuals across all sectors.
AcademyHealth membership includes roughly equal gender representation, females (51 percent) and males (45 percent), while student membership has greater female representation (64 percent) than male (30 percent). The ethnic mix of members is 13 percent from minority ethnic backgrounds, including Asian/Pacific Islanders (7 percent), African Americans (3 percent), and Hispanics/Latinos (1 percent); 24 percent are "unknown." The remainder (63 percent) are Caucasians. Student membership shows greater diversity—24 percent coming from minority ethnic backgrounds, including 14 percent Asian/Pacific Islanders, 6 percent African Americans, and 2 percent Hispanics/Latinos, plus 54 percent Caucasians and 22 percent unknown.
Table 7-2 shows the primary fields of interest of AcademyHealth members. Most members classify themselves into health services research, and only 15 to 20 percent, depending on their degree, list health policy. The exceptions are those with J.D. degrees, who are strongly oriented toward policy.

The Missouri Credit Union Association will schedule legislative visits with the Missouri Congressional delegation and staff, as well as regulatory agency representatives. It's a great opportunity for credit union management and volunteers to share credit union conce
In Missouri and across the country, credit unions are focusing on the final push to pass member business lending (MBL) legislation. Time is running out and all efforts are needed. If member business lending is not passed by the end of the year, MBL will have to be reintroduced when the new Congress takes office and the process must start all over again.
Make credit union voices heard in Washington, D.C.! The Missouri Credit Union Association's summer Hike the Hill takes place June 25-27.
A key focus on Capitol Hill is member business lending, in support of S. 2231, the Credit Union Small Business Jobs Act. It is important for federal lawmakers to hear directly from people who are involved in member business lending - and those who want to do more.
Missouri credit union leaders took their message to Capitol Hill as part of the Credit Union National Association's Governmental Affairs Conference (GAC), March 18 – 22. The group included 47 attendees from 15 credit unions who visited with each office in Missouri's Congressional delegation.

How to prepare for a Mac disaster
No one likes to think about disasters such as burglary, earthquake, fire, the zombie apocalypse, or other catastrophes that could potentially wipe out your Mac, your other gadgets, and perhaps even your entire home or office. But these things do happen (with the possible exception of the zombies), and despite your best efforts, you might not be able to prevent the loss. You can, however, minimize the damage and inconvenience you'll suffer—and speed your recovery—by making sure you've taken a number of commonsense steps to prepare for misfortune ahead of time.
Let's start with your hardware itself—your Mac(s), hard drives, monitors, printer, scanner, and so on. If you pulled into your driveway and found a huge crater where your home used to be, replacing that equipment will probably be in the top ten items on your post-tragedy to-do list. Will your insurance cover it? If you haven't checked into that question specifically, this might be a good time to study your policy or chat about it with your insurance agent.

Mother of Slain State Department Employee Sean Patrick Smith Blames Obama for Sons Death … "I believe that Obama murdered my son"
Posted in: 2012 Elections,Barack Obama,Benghazi-Gate,Epic Fail,Libyan Consulate - Amb. Stevens,Murder,Obamanation,Presidential Election,Terrorism,US Navy Seals,War on Terror
Another parent blames the death of their Seal son on Barack Obama and he continues to stonewall. Patricia Smith, the mother of deceased State Department employee Sean Patrick Smith, stated "I believe that Obama murdered my son."
Patricia Smith, the mother of slain State Department employee Sean Patrick Smith, is now blaming President Barack Obama for her son's death.
"I believe that Obama murdered my son," she said Thursday from the living room of her Clairemont home. "I firmly believe this."
Patricia Smith, who voted for Obama in 2008 at the insistence of her son, said reporting by Fox News is the basis for much of her belief that Obama is ultimately responsible for her son's death. She said Sean, who went to Mission Bay High School but lived abroad, was a fervent supporter of the president.
These words echo the sentiments of the father of slain US Navy Seal Tyrone Woods who also believes that Obama is responsible fro the death of his son. However, the president has refused to provide any details of what he knew and when he knew it. Instead, Obama is running out the clock on the 2012 election. What a Commander in Chief.

Title: | Computational Study on Aerodynamic Mitigation of Wind-Induced, Large-Amplitude Vibrations of Stay Cables With Strakes |
Published: | March 01, 2011 |
Abstract: | Modifications of circular cylinder surfaces, such as strakes and helical wires, effectively mitigate Kármán vortex-induced vibrations normal to flow and have been applied to the reduction of large-amplitude vibrations of stay cables in bridges, which occur under wind oblique to a cable with or without rainfall. This aerodynamic control method cannot be fully effective without un-derstanding the behavior of the flow around and the associated forces on oblique cables. To ad-dress this issue, flow around a yawed cylinder with various strake patterns was studied using three-dimensional detached eddy simulation (DES) at Reynolds number of 1.4×105. Results demonstrated that strake patterns strongly influence the development of flow structures around a yawed cylinder and therefore the associated forces on the cylinder. The results suggest that par-ticular strake patterns can mitigate large-amplitude and low-frequency vibrations of stay cables induced by oblique wind. |

The presence of valence fluctuating redox ions such as Pb, Tl, Sb, etc can enhance the transition temperature of the new oxide superconductors. We propose the possibility of the existence of negative Hubbard parameter (U) on redox ion which results in effective negative U on apex oxygen bridging redox ion and the CuO2 planes. This enhances Tc.

UPDATE: Morgan Stanley Initiates Coverage on Manitowoc on Non-Resi Construction Exposure
In a report published Thursday, Morgan Stanley analyst Nicole DeBlase initiated coverage on Manitowoc Company (NYSE: MTW) with an Equal-Weight rating and $23.00 price target.
In the report, Morgan Stanley noted, "MTW has significant exposure to US Non-Resi Construction, which we view in a favorable light. However, if we isolate to Cranes, given the relative stability of Foodservice, Non-Resi exposure is lower. We estimate that new US Non-Resi Construction represents 19% of the portfolio. We believe that MTW can add 12% and 31% upside to EPS in the event of a modest and robust Non-Resi recovery, respectively. While we do not believe that strategic action is impending, we acknowledge the inherent value in the company's SotP valuation, as we calculate a $21 base case (broadly in line with our price target) and $25 bull case."
Manitowoc Company closed on Wednesday at $20.26.

John Childress, Principia Associates, 353 pages, $24
"Culture" is the mot du jour in the business world. But what does "corporate culture" actually mean?
For some people it means the image that a company projects to the world. For others it means a company's most cherished habits — the HP Way or the Wal-Mart Way. For others still it means its canteen culture, "the way we do things around here," which is often the opposite of the formal rules. Goldman Sachs' formal culture proclaims that customers come first. Its canteen culture, at least according to one former banker at the firm, proclaims that customers are "Muppets." "CEOs can talk and blab all day about culture," Jack Welch once said, "but the employees know who the jerks are."
John Childress, a management consultant, has written a sensible if somewhat flat-footed guide to the subject. Childress could have done with a better editor: "Leverage" would have had more leverage if it had lost 100 pages and a dozen overused examples. His folksy prose style ("just what the heck is corporate culture?") is grating.
Still, he knows his subject well, and writes about it with enthusiasm. He produces some nice examples of culture-driven disasters: Carly Fiorina failed as CEO of Hewlett-Packard because she tried to impose a sales-driven culture on an engineering-dominated organization.
He notes that it is pointless to focus on producing the right culture if you do not back it up with robust business capabilities: Zappos.com can turn around a shoe or clothing order in eight minutes thanks to heavy investment in technology. He also points out that the most common mistake bosses make when they try to change cultures is to think in grandiose terms, whereas it is often the little things that matter most.
"Sensible" might not sound like particularly high praise but, for a business book in this charlatan-infested field, it is an accolade worth having.

Danburg first ran for Montrose's District 137 in 1980. In her fight for expanded sexual rights, she won AIDS-prevention funding and helped pass a bill that made it easier for gays and lesbians to adopt children.
But she played an equally important role as a defender against a conservative backlash. She educated rural lawmakers about the real faces of urban gays and is credited with killing legislation that would have made homosexual conduct even more illegal than it was at the time. Her stance was vindicated in 2003, when the state's archaic sodomy law was struck down by the U.S. Supreme Court.
Despite such accomplishments -- or because of them -- conservatives stormed Danburg's stronghold. After a round of Republican-led redistricting, she was thrown into largely conservative District 134 and lost her bid for re-election in 2002 to Republican Martha Wong.
Still, Danburg's ideas haven't been defeated. Gay activists could one day yell, "Remember Debra Danburg!"

| The Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests SNAP Press Release SNAP: Judges violate Ohio Supreme Court ruling Group accuses appeals court of "blocking" disclosure Documents about accused predator priest were to be released But now Guernsey County officials "ignore" order by state's highest court Victims are upset & feel others could be harmed because of these "delaying tactics" WHAT They will also beg victims of the accused priest to come forward and prod an Ohio Catholic bishop to put the cleric in a treatment center. WHEN WHERE WHO WHY: Now, however, the Guernsey judges have recently decided to again withhold the records. And the attorney for the alleged victim is filing a new motion, charging that the Guernsey judges are "directly violating the mandate of the Ohio Supreme Court" and trying to "open a whole new can of worms" by "seeking a new basis for refusing to disclose the records." The alleged victim is Beth Rocker, who says she was molested by Steubenville diocesan priest Fr. Gary Zalenski at several places (including on his pontoon boat at Seneca Lake in 1991). In 2007, she reported her allegations to church officials and in January 2008, she contacted police but no criminal prosecution was initiated. Still, in November 2007, Zalenski was suspended by Bishop R. Daniel Conlon and remains suspended now. SNAP has urged Conlon to send Zalenski to an in-patient treatment center to receive treatment. Zalenski has worked as a priest and teacher at churches and schools in Guernsey and Belmont counties. Link to Zalenski timeline.. http://www.steubenvilletruth.org/Gary_Zalenski_Pg1.html SNAP contends that church officials are "secretive" about child sex cases and that Ohio's "archaic, predator-friendly" statutes of limitations make criminal and civil cases against Zalenski unlikely. It's crucial, the group says, that these records be released "so that parents, parishioners and the public" will better understand the allegations against Zalenski. Copies of several legal documents to be released at press event will be the judgment from Guernsey county court of Appeals which was filed on Oct 12th. Also released will be the new legal brief by Rocker's counsel, Konrad Kircher of Mason, Ohio (513 229 7996, email@example.com).

Families will feel welcome here, and not just because the acoustics drown out even a colicky baby's wails, or because the menu is loaded with kid fare like mac and cheese and spaghetti and meatballs.

If you've reached the end of your existing contract or quite simply wish to splash out on a new mobile phone, the choice is endless. Smartphones appear to be growing bigger and better by the minute and with this in mind, choosing just the one device can be a tricky decision.
In order to make this decision wisely, it is important that you establish what it is that you need from a mobile phone. You should begin by asking yourself when and where you will be using the handset. Is your phone mainly work orientated or alternatively, a social device? Do you email and surf the web more than you text and call or do you use all three features to the same level? Is the phone's camera important to you and likewise are any of its other features?
Once you have created a mental list of what it is that you wish your phone to cater to, only then should you begin to look at mobile plans and handsets.If like many, you wish to invest in a phone that offers the best of both worlds and is suited to both work and leisure use, you'll be happy to know that many of today's smartphones cater to the needs of all.
Take the new range of BlackBerry smartphones for example. At one time, BlackBerry's were solely orientated around email and the business world, now they showcase a wide range of features suited to both work and personal use. Take the new Blackberry Z10 for example; this particular handset has been designed around those that are always on the move.
Many of today's working individuals boast extremely hectic lives and as such, require a phone that can not only organise them but also, get them to the places they want to be, allow regular online chat, share experiences and ideas with others, entertain them during lengthy commutes and aid them when it comes to completing tasks faster.
The Z10 houses a new technology in the shape of the BlackBerry Flow. This technology encourages users to customise their smartphone in a completely new way. Features and applications have been designed to seamlessly work side by side, which in turn allows the consumer to share everything from snap shots and music to data and business files.
If you like the sound of this technology and feel its time to step it up a notch, then the N10 may be just what you are looking for. If this is the case, selling or recycling your existing mobile phone is a must. Thanks to the web, this is a hassle-free process and one that can be completed in a matter of minutes. For those who want to sell Blackberry Bold 9990 models, sites such as Music Magpie allow you to recycle your existing mobile phone in a safe manner.
